You're right.

He had a great presence.

I feel like I know the Careys (and John Ford) a bit better, thanks to your research.<br /><br />I'm glad you talked about the image of John Wayne, at the end of The Searchers, holding his arm the way he does. I didn't realize this was a famous Harry Carey Sr pose, and was always puzzled by it. Now that you've explained it, it resonates with meaning.<br /><br />Thank you for joining the blogathon with this look at Harry Carey, Sr and Jr!Silver Screeningshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04955048716754142299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1369037629844090449.post-52996464938066886492016-08-10T19:42:50.338-07:002016-08-10T19:42:50.338-07:00The screening was part of TIFF.

What a cool experience to see BUCKING BROADWAY on the big screen with Bogdanovich present. Was that part of the Toronto Silent Film Festival? I need to make a trip over for that sometime. I don't recall a mention of Vesper Pegg on the DVD; I'll have to watch it again to double check ;-)Jocelynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14952528487748234667noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1369037629844090449.post-40833132864985811902016-08-08T10:52:35.643-07:002016-08-08T10:52:35.643-07:00Thank you!

It was a treat to listen to is Ford stories and watch the movie. Did they mention on the "Stagecoach" DVD extras that the city slicker in "Bucking Broadway", Vesper Pegg was one of the Plummer boys in "Stagecoach"?<br /><br />Thank you for the generous shout out.Caftan Womanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05936895555808823221noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1369037629844090449.post-50539254264558144862016-08-07T18:00:03.190-07:002016-08-07T18:00:03.190-07:00Great tribute to a family that made some of my fav...Great tribute to a family that made some of my favorite films come alive.Josh Wilson (fforfilms.net)https://www.blogger.com/profile/13405747163517539197noreply@blogger.com
